Travel in most of Europe is easy. An agreement between the 15 European Union countries in 1995 means that citizens from most European countries can travel across borders without needing a visa.
Each of the 12 countries that has 36 its own currency (货币) to accept the euro has its own 37 . So how have these countries been able to 38 ? And how has each country prepared for the birth of this new currency? Firstly, many people in Europe, 39 in west Europe, speak English.

Each country has its own 47 culture.

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
There are between 3000 and 6000 public languages in the world, and we must add approximately 6 __36___ private languages since each one of us necessarily has one. __37___ these facts, the possibilities for breakdowns in communication seem infinite in number. However, we do __38___ successfully from time to time. And we do learn to speak languages. But learning to speak languages seems to be a very __39___ process. For a long time, people thought that we learned a language only by imitation and association. __40___, a baby touches a hot pot and starts to cry. The mother says, “Hot, hot!” And the baby, when it stops crying, __41___ the mother and says, “Hot, hot!” However, Noam Chomsky, a famous expert in language, __42___ that although children do learn some __43___ by imitation and association, they also combine words to make meaningful sentences in ways that are unique, unlearned and creative.

Ⅲ．Reading Comprehension
Section A
Some personal characteristics play an important role in the development of one’s intelligence．But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people．
The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s feelings, will, motivation, interests and habits．After a 30-year follow up study of 8,000 males, American psychologists50that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence51 , but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn, will power and self-confidence．
52people all know that one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to 53 these factors．
Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies．They blame either genetic factors, malnutrition（营养不良） or laziness, but they never take54consideration these non-intelligence factors．At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these, as reasons55students do poorly．They simply give them more courses and exercises, or56 criticize or laugh at them．After all, these students lose self-confidence．Some of them just feel defeated and57themselves up as hopeless．Others may go astray（堕落）because they are sick of learning．An investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46．5 percent of them were58of learning, because of examinations, 36．4 percent lacked persistence, initiative and consciousness and 10．3 percent were sick of learning．
It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main 59
to intelligence development in teenagers．It even causes an imbalance between physiological and 60 development among a few students．
If we don’t start now to61the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only affect the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the quality of a whole generation．Some experts have put forward62about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors．
First, parents and teachers should63understand teenage psychology．On this basis, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning， 64their interests and toughening their willpower．
